"Kellogg’s Diner (open since 1924) has been reborn as a chrome-accented spot with dusty rose tables and Tex-Mex tendencies. The Williamsburg institution still serves eggs, but now you can get them in the form of an omelet with green chile crema. As per the official diner rule book, the menu remains massive, and portions are huge. Stop by for brunch and eat some pancakes, or plan a leisurely dinner with friends and get some enchiladas with a Negroni. Due to the size of the place, getting a table should be easy." - bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick
"When watery diner eggs won’t do, head to Kellogg’s for guajillo short rib hash, or maybe a piece of fried chicken on a biscuit dripping with honey butter. Besides the zhuzhed up Tex-Mex/Southern dishes sprinkled among the breakfast classics, this glammed-up Williamsburg diner also serves orange wine and cocktails (and fantastic desserts). But the booths are loose and easy enough for your comfiest loungewear." - bryan kim, willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, sonal shah
"Amanda Perdomo (Wildair, Roman’s) made the dessert menu at this revived diner that lean into mid-century nostalgia, including a Hummingbird cake with pineapple jam with candied pecans, an espresso red-eye cake with chicory, flan, and coconut cream pie. But it’s this strawberry pretzel salad that’s the head-turner, a Midwest picnic classic layered with cream cheese and strawberry Jell-O. Her desserts at JR and Son, also from the team down the street, like a rainbow cookie cake, also steal the show." - Melissa McCart
"This revamped 24-hour diner is fun for the whole family, especially later at night. Kids sprawl in comfortable beige booths and scribble over Williamsburg landmarks on the paper placements, while people in short shorts and pink cowboy hats sink their teeth into saucy ribs at the bar. Servers keep the energy high, fist-bumping people as they deliver generously loaded plates of chicken and biscuits or a chocolate cake infused with chicory coffee." - willa moore, sonal shah, bryan kim, will hartman
"Hours: 24/7 When new owners took over Kellogg’s and refreshed the space and menu with a Tex-Mex there was one question lingering: Would it return to its former status as a late-night spot? Thankfully, that answer is yes, Kellogg’s is back to a 24/7 reputation, and there’s a special after-dinner menu for those leaving the club or getting home from work." - Emma Orlow
